Chapter 851: Chapter 0851: First Encounter with Jiang Wei 3

Feng Qingxue, carrying her child, had just arrived home when she noticed two extra people in the house: Lu Jiang and a young man she didn’t recognize.

About eighteen or nineteen years old, with a buzz cut, a thin, long face, bushy eyebrows, and large eyes. His height was rather imposing, and he had a sturdy build. Dressed in green military attire, he had the look of a fresh recruit, with an air of youthful vitality about him.

"My aunt calls you ’sister,’ so what should I call you?" asked the young man, not the least bit shy.

Feng Qingxue laughed, "You must be Xiaoyue’s nephew, Jiang Wei?"

There was a certain resemblance between the two, which made it instantly apparent they were closely related by blood.

"Yes!"

"Come, sit down, have some water. Ajiang, make him some sugar water. Jiang Wei, in the army, the soldiers all call me ’sister-in-law,’ so you should follow suit. If we go by the family terms your aunt uses for me, I’m not yet worthy of your address." In the future, Jiang Xiaoyue would have to call her aunt, so Jiang Wei would have to lower his form of address by two generations.

Jiang Wei sat down with a grin, "Yes, sister-in-law!"

Lu Jiang promptly asked Xibao and Fubao to take care of Jiang Wei while he cooked with Feng Qingxue.

Speaking softly, Feng Qingxue said, "Why didn’t you give me a heads up? Luckily, I saw a decent half pig’s head left at the service society today, so I bought it. Hurry up and deal with it, and I’ll cook it on high heat."

"There were several new recruits named Jiang Wei, naturally I had to check each one out until I was sure it was him before I brought him over."

They were hoping Jiang Yun would look after Lu Tianjun, so of course, they had to treat Jiang Wei well.

Life for a new recruit was tough, and Lu Jiang knew it all too well. Inviting Jiang Wei home for a meal was the best care he could offer.

With pork head stewing in the pot, Feng Qingxue, carrying the child on her back, took out another piece of pork from the space and, along with what they bought today, made a big plate of Beijing sauce pork strips, a steamed egg with minced meat, and a stir-fried dish of spicy sour potato strips.

Buying meat was just for show.

After finishing the cooking and cutting the pork head for a cold dish, Feng Qingxue pretended to reach into a cabinet but actually took out a roll of white-flour pancakes from the space. Such pancakes, rolled with green onion and Beijing sauce meat, were absolutely delicious.

"Ajiang, go ahead and eat; I’m going to take some over to Little Stone," she said.

Two pancakes rolled with Beijing sauce pork strips and green onions, wrapped in gauze, were delivered to Little Stone, who jumped up happily.

"Auntie Snow, you’re the best auntie in the world!" Unwrapping the gauze and returning it to Feng Qingxue, Little Stone held a pancake roll in one hand, taking bites alternately from the left and right, devouring it hungrily.

Feng Qingxue smiled with pursed lips, "Eat slowly; your mom isn’t going to fight you for it."

As for Wu Lei, he should have been on duty today; his presence wasn’t detected at home.

Huang Xiuzhi felt quite embarrassed, "Xiaoxue, look at you, being so polite. You only bought a little meat, made dishes and even sent some to Little Stone." She felt her face flushing with heat.

"Kids are growing, we can’t let them suffer! Don’t stand on ceremony with us, it’s as if you’ve never made delicious food for Xibao and Fubao." Feng Qingxue gave her hand a comforting pat, "That’s enough now, you and your daughter keep eating. I’ve got guests at home, so I’ll be going. When you have time, bring Xibao and Fubao over to play with you two!"

Swallowing the food in his mouth in a hurry, Little Stone said, "Thank you, Auntie Snow, goodbye!"

"Goodbye!"

With Feng Qingxue away, no matter how hospitable Lu Jiang was, Jiang Wei didn’t touch his chopsticks until Feng Qingxue returned. Then he cheerfully said, "Leader Lu, sister-in-law, I’m not holding back anymore!"
